Revision of Horde Dailies Guide from Sat, 2009-01-10 19:27

This is the Horde version of a Northrend daily guide. Rather then say that you have to do the zones in a certain order, I would much rather show you the dailies inside the zone, and the most effective way to do them, that way, you can choose whatever zone you wish to do dailies in and complete them. I will also not be including any dailies in Grizzly Hills and Icecrown as they are covered by this guide. I am also assuming that you have unlocked all of the dailies (will go over this in the respective zones section.)

Useful Addons

To get the most out of my guide, you should get an addon which displays coordinates, because I use them to describe locations in my guide (x,y). You can use any addon you like, but here's a very simple one I use.

Recommended

DMiniCoords - A simple box which displays coordinates, left-click it to move it where you like.

LightHeaded - I absolutely love this addon. It gives you the quest comments from WoWHead and you can see what other people had to say about the quest, it also gives you clickable co-ordinates.

TomTom - Puts a Waypoint arrow on your screen when you click the co-ordinates on LightHeaded, also marks them on your map.

TitanPanel - It can track how much money an hour you are making, and the cost of repairs.

Optional

Below is a list of other addons I use, this is 100% optional though, it's mostly for people who are curious to know which addons I use:

Side Note:In case you don't know how to install add-ons, simply download an addon from one of the links above and unzip it. Then drag the unziped folder in your Addon folder (full path is c:\\Program Files\\World of Warcraft\\Interface\\Addons). Then, restart World of Warcraft and it should be working.

If it isn't working, you might need to log out to your character selection screen and click on "Addons" in the lower-left corner. Tick the box that says "Load out of date Addons". Re-launch WoW.

Stormpeaks

To unlock most of the dailies in The Stormpeaks you have to complete the very long quest chain starting with They Took Our Men, you must also have a flying mount.

Fly to K3. Get the Daily Quest Overstock . Go North-West to around (43,81)in Garm's Bane and lay down the Improved Land Mines and make 12 Garm Invaders go boom. Return to K3 and turn this in.

Fly to Brunnhildar Village go to Gretta the Arbiter, get the 2 Daily Quests these offer, she will always give you The Abberations Must Die and one of the following:

Do the Daily Quest which you got from the list first, and turn it in (They do not need an explanation on how to do them).

Now fly to Valkyrion and kill Valkyrion Aspirants for their Vials of Frost Oil untill you have around 4. Then go to the pit with the Plagued Proto-Drake Eggs in it and aim for destroying the 7 and 8 egg group first, repeat this untill you have completed this quest. Now fly back to Brunnhildar Village and turn in the quest.

Now we get to the the Sons of Hodir quests. I will simply be listing the quests, what reputation is required, and what to do for them. You can do them in whatever order you wish as sometimes some objectives can be crowded. Also, you have to complete certain 1 time quests to unlock the dailies. They will get unlocked depending on your reputation standing, I will say what quest needs to be done before you can do the daily.

Hot and Cold: Requires Friendly Reputation. Go East of Dun Niffelem to Frostfield Lake and kill Brittle Revenants for their Essence of Ice. Get 5 of these. Now go further east to Fjorn's Anvil and use the Essence of Ice near the Iron Scraps and collect the Frozen Iron Scraps, do this 5 times.

Blowing Hodir's Horn: Requires Friendly Reputation. Go North-East of Dun Niffelem to Thunderfall. Kill Niffelem Forefathers and Restless Frostborns. When you kill one be sure to use Hodir's Horn ontop of them to free them. Do this 5 times for each mob.

Polishing the Helm: Requires Friendly Reputation. Go West of Dun Niffelem to the Hibernal Cave. Kill Viscous Oils and loot them for their Viscous Oil do this 5 times.

Spy Hunter: Requires Honored Reputation. Go West of Dun Niffelemto the Valley of Ancient Winters. Use Ethereal Worg's Fang on a Fallen Worg to summon an Ethereal Worg. Follow it around untill it 'exposes it's prey'. A Stormforged Infiltrator will spawn, kill it. Keep following it untill you kill 3 infiltrators.

Thrusting Hodir's Spear: Requires Honored Reputation. See the first comment at this page to see how to do this daily, as it is described way better than I can describe it.

Feeding Arngrim: Requires Revered Reputation. Go West of Dun Niffelemto the Valley of Ancient Winters. Use Arngrim's Tooth on a Roaming Jormungar. Fight the Jormungar untill Arngrim shows up and eats the Jormungar. (Hunters will have to pet their put onto passive, use the tooth, then kill the mob by themselves, as it is currently bugged and it will not give you credit if you use your pet.)

Fly to Kaskala and get Preparing for the Worst from Utaik at (64,45). Go south of him into the village and look for Kaskala Supplies on the ground. Collect 8 of these and then return to him.

Fly to the Transitus Shield and get Drake Hunt. Fly to the Western side of The Nexus and use Raelorasz's Spear on a Drake Hatchling. Take the hits from this mob for around 25 seconds then return to the Transitus Shield and turn in this quest.

Now fly to the uppermost ring of The Nexus and get Aces High!. Use the following rotation to kill 5 Scalesworn Elites: 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 5, 3. This will make sure that Revivify and Flame Shield are nearly constantly up.

Comments

Heyy the first step of Icecrown "Head to the Krasus Landing in Dalaran. Once there talk to Sky-Reaver Klum, click the "Take me to the ship." option. Once at the ship pick up the following dailies"
when i click to talk to him there isnt that option.
can i just go to icecrown and start from there or do i need that particular part?

A tip for daily quest Will of the Titans in Scholazar Basin, Rainspeaker Canopy, Oracles honored: The tainted crystal which is dropped by the first wolwar slain by you, can be loaded with energy at precisely in [33,5:74,9] and obviously nowhere else if you don't fly to the Mosslight Pillar. Then you show your loaded crystal to oracle quest giver quite close to that point. Then you get to drive Soo-holu, cyborg cat. If you show a not loaded crystal to him, he doesn't react. You can also lose your crystal in the fight. Then you get it back from the next wolwar you kill, and do the same again until 50 wolwars killed.(edit afterwards: Unless it's a buggy day, like today. I had do kill all the frenzies manually, since the tainted crystal wouldn't appear to get looted. Not though I abandoned the quest and fetched it again from quest giver..)

I wish there were similar hot spots for daily quest Song of Reflection for not yet flying players..?

A tip for Grizzly hills dailies - like those in Venture Bay - they can be stored to your quest log like any other quests, but they turn your pvp flag on and keep it that way as long as they are in your quest log. As a consequence you are flagged as pvp everywhere you go. As a consequence all other - stronger players may attack you instantly without warning. This can be pretty disturbing when you are in a "safe" town, inn or in the middle of completing a quest which has nothing to do with Grizzly Hills. I found this out the hard way. (First some Alliance player killed me and i thought that it was just raiding. Then somebody from Horde also killed me inside Moaki harbour inn three or four times and then i asked GM for the reason..)

An additional tip FYI for daily quest The Way To His Heart "Goes Through His Stomach"(a phrase quoted by Blizzard), Kamagua, Howling Fjord

The way to his heart can go through HER stomach - meaning Mercy, the sailship - if you don't pay attention! If you do this daily quest walking or mounted on your whatever animal, like I do being a dk with talents in unholy, you can just walk on your Path of Frost("The Death Knights freezing aura.."). Here fishing goes like shopping around by walking since schools of fish create spores on the surface. Then it's good to take in to consideration, that Mercy is sailing its round starting from Garvans Reef [37,42] about where fish is often spawning too. Don't let Mercy sail over you. If you see the inside of Mercy with murlocs and guns it's already too late. You may have earned your Darwin Award for NPC's-from-other-quest-death. The ship believes that you are on board of the lover deck, and there you are somewhere on it. The 8 angry murlocks(lvl 69 but respawning fast one by one) haven't most likely noticed you so far, so you can hearthstone away from Mercy, if you like. If you are close to stairs, you just walk away. Because you're earning only 6g50s from this daily(+20100XP), it can be pretty serious moonlight to repair your durability, if they get you. So better dance away from Mercy. She'll chew you up. It may be fun to try out this feature if you're bored, though. Just put all expensive stuff in your bag. Repair available in Kamagua. Btw. Repeating this RRQ increases your Kalu'ak-reputation by +500 eventually to exalted. This makes usefull equipment available to buy from Tanaika, Kalu'ak Quartermaster[25,58], Kamagua, not just souvenirs(armory, polearm, and maybe Pengu for those who are into Linux..?).

ps. If you decide to go so low that you kite the female reef by hurting it after giving the bull just one fish, you better turn your auto-attack of first. Othervise you end up with dead female reef too early and at least you SHOULD feel like the lowest creature in the whole big Azeroth.

I read your guide, and while I did appreciate the effort you put into it for all to make use of, I can't help but comment to a couple of things.

I apologize in advance if this upsets or hurts you but I feel the need to be honest with you. I look forward to making my own guides sometime in the future and I hope when I do, that others will take the time to share with me how to improve my work to better help the masses.

Anywhoo, My wife stumbled across this and was sharing with me that it contains a list of all the dailies to do in Northrend and etc. I was excited. I thought sweet, now I can read this and become knowledgeable with all the dailies and figure out what route I'm going to take to get rep here, there, and everywhere. As I read this, I was immediately disappointed. Come to find out, it does NOT have all the dailies, on the contrary you put a link to other peoples work. That was my second point. You took the time to make something nice to help everyone out and then seemed like you got lazy in the middle of doing this. You linked in several places to go read other peoples work and while it was nice of you to link it. I came to YOUR page to read the info. I dunno, maybe it's just me, I feel that if someone is going to come to my page. I should list all the relevant info needed. The last thing I want to do is send them away from my page. anyway, it's just something for you to chew on. I hope that you see this as constructive criticism and not a flame or as me making light of your work. I thank you very much for what you did do.

Very solid arguement, only reason why I linked to the other guide was due to the fact that it had already been up and had a route, and I may start working on a list for Icecrown and Grizzly Hills but that would take a while due to the ludicrous amount of dailies in Icecrown.

Great guide man, I was going to work on a Storm Peaks / Scholozar Basin reputation daily guide, but you got it made perfectly. Are you going to be making an alliance version of this by the way? If not, I can make that for you.
